Go Figure Barre Studios, a boutique fitness offering, is home to The Figure Method and Nantucket Ballet. The Figure Method barre class fuses classical ballet technique with strength training to deliver an intense, dynamic, and safe workout that works. The instructors (mostly professional dancers) pride themselves on continuing education, a thorough understanding of postural alignment, and delivering the best practices in barre fitness. Ballet Fitness Fusion, more geared toward classical ballet technique, is also offered along with a selection of children’s and adult dance classes. Private instruction, intensives, and workshops are held all summer. Additionally, Figure Method classes are offered every weekend on Nobadeer Beach via the Barre Bus: a mobile barre studio that parks along the surf and offers an outdoor fitness experience like no other. #FigureMethod #GoFigureACK #BarreBus

Bartlett’s Farm has been a fixture of the Nantucket community since the early 1800s when William Bartlett began tilling the soil and harvesting hay. However, tucked above this renowned family farm is one of the island’s best kept secrets – a spacious and serene space known as the Hayloft, home to Dharma Yoga. Open year-round, Dharma Yoga is a warm and welcoming place for yoga students of all levels. The loft is beautifully adorned with windows for plenty of natural light and is air conditioned in the summer and heated in the winter. The studio focuses on Classical Hatha, Restorative and Aerial Yoga bringing improved health, well being and a sense of peace to all who join the practice. #DharmaYogaNantucket
